NEBHE s New England Regional Student Program New England Board of Higher Education 45 Temple Place, Boston, Massachusetts

5 Frequently Asked Questions Is the New England Regional Student Program (RSP) for New England only? Yes. The program, aka the Tuition Break, is only for permanent residents of the six New England states Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont who attend out-of-state public colleges and universities in New England. How does a student qualify for the RSP? As a permanent resident of a New England state, a student is eligible for the RSP when enrolled in an approved degree program offered by a specific public college or university in another New England state. Information on approved majors (associate, bachelor s and graduate) is available under Find a Program at Note: The approved bachelor s degree programs are also listed in the state-specific brochures. At certain colleges, students may also qualify when the out-of-state college is closer to home than the in-state college(s) offering the same program. The colleges allowing proximity eligibility are listed at under Eligibility. How does a student apply for the RSP? A student completes the college s application for admission and declares an approved major offered through the RSP by that college. Some college applications include a box to check for New England Regional or RSP. Otherwise, a student should indicate Applying for New England Regional Student Program (RSP) status. NEBHE does not require a separate application. The college notifies a student of RSP status usually at the time of acceptance to the college. Note: Some programs have special requirements and/or are not available to freshman students (see footnotes to programs). How much of a discount is the RSP? The average annual tuition savings per full-time RSP student is currently $7,200. The RSP allows an eligible student to pay a regional rate, which is significantly less than out-of-state tuition. The rate is based on a percentage (up to 175 percent) of a college s in-state rate. Current tuition rates are posted at tuitionbreak under Data and Reports. Example: In-State Tuition...$6,000 Out-of-State Tuition...$18,000 Regional (RSP) Tuition...$10,500 Tuition Discount...$7,500 Can a student already enrolled at a college declare an RSP major at that college? Usually. An enrolled student needs to contact the registrar and/or the college s RSP campus representative, listed in the RSP catalogs, available at How are degree programs approved for RSP status? Undergraduate and graduate majors are approved for RSP status on an annual basis. The residents of a particular state become eligible for an RSP major after a review by that state s public colleges and universities determines that a comparable major or concentration is not offered in-state. Why are certain programs, which aren t offered in a student s home state, not offered under the RSP? Sometimes a college or university decides not to offer certain majors, such as high-demand programs, under the RSP. Also, a few programs are not offered by any New England public college or university (Examples: Aerospace Engineering, Physician Assistant, Professional Golf Management). What happens if a student changes from an approved RSP major to one not approved? A student will be charged the full out-of-state tuition rate from that point forward. What happens if a college decides to discontinue offering a major through the RSP? If a college withdraws a major from the RSP, but still offers the major, eligible students currently enrolled through the RSP are grandfathered. Can the RSP be used to attend a private college or a college outside New England? No. The RSP is only available at New England public colleges and universities. Is an RSP-eligible student eligible to apply for financial aid? Yes. A student should complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) available at and any other financial aid applications required by the college(s) in order to be considered for any type of financial aid (scholarships, grants, loans and/or work-study).
